What was the exact moment they were truly fucked?
>>223981950when the blond fucker kicked the rocks
>>223981950I would say around autumn 1996
>>223981950When they listened to a woman
After they desecrated the graveyard.
What do you mean they? Only the girl was fucked. The two guys planned everything in order to murder the chick.
>>223981950When they lost the map.
>>223982109This was debunked ages ago
>>223981973This. That’s when shit really started going down. By the time they were seeing stickmen hanging from the trees they were no longer in their normal reality.
>>223982109The documentary was Heather’s idea, she wasn’t lured into participating.
>>223981986What did he mean by this?
>>223982181The documentary didn’t matter. The murder was planned around it.
>>223981986>30 years ago Jesus Christ
>>223981973this is the canon moment it all went to shit>>223981986this took place in 94 though>>223982164no they were still very much in reality, the witch just manipulated the woods so they would walk in circles and get lost
>>223981950The first night they camped there.
>>223982210Makes no sense. Again they didn’t come up with the idea.
>>223981950they were fucked as soon as they allowed the foid to be in charge of the project
>>223981950Around here
>>223982240>how does this unrelated thing fit into the master plan?Idiot
>>223982220The house at the end shouldn’t be there.
>>223982220>no they were still very much in realityThe cabin wasn't supposed to be there, it had burned down previously.
>>223982251>oh hey it's a creepy clown! >that's good luck!
>>223982251>Hey Heatha don't go into the woods with those guys they're gonna kill ya! Also the Blair Witch is real and it's a monster lookin bitch! Heatha? Heathaaaaa!!
would you rather be stuck in the blair witch forest or in the backrooms?
>>223982109Oh yeah? Where did the kids playing in the night come from? Disneyland?
>>223982259Unrelated? If she wasn’t doing the documentary, then she wouldn’t be going into the woods in the first place.
>>223982282Backrooms because it's light and indoors
>>223982288She can still get murdered, dummy
The companion documentary that was released alongside the movie establishes that their footage was found in the old foundation of the house from the end with no evidence of a structure being there for decades.
>>223982282There's no consistent lore about what the backrooms are so that choice is out immediately because you'd have to choose Backrooms Version 1 or 3 or 18. Regardless I'd choose the Blair Witch Woods because I'm not a pussy and would just beat the witch up because canonically it's just a dryad.
>>223982365OK, I'll bite: what is a dryad, anon?
>>223982365You must be fun to be around
>>223982382It's a half woman half deer with big tits and a bubbly personality.
>>223982305 What's wrong with the great outdoors?
>>223982109No, not true. Plus The Camera fuckin floats through the house at the end, broham
>>223982404This >>223982365 bears absolutely no resemblance to that description.
>>223982270>>223982275it was fairly decrepit and built out of brick/concrete (which don't burn lol), so whatever was wood just burned i suppose. reminder that burned down =/= no structure left standing>>223982425>The Camera fuckin floats through the house at the enddunno how you could be this retarded
>>223982613There would still be evidence of a structure being there until just recently. It was only a year between when they disappeared to when their footage was found buried there.
>>223982645they found the footage buried somewhere else, didn't they?
>>223982421I'm afraid of the woods at night
>>223982717It’s been a while since I’ve seen it, but I’m pretty sure the companion doc makes it pretty clear that it’s supposed to be the same basement. It would be kind of silly if it wasn’t
>>223982776well idk maybe the witch blew up the house, seeing as how she's got all sorts of powers and shit
>>223982109It's a much better movie with this theory so I choose to believe it
>>223982962nah it's a pretty stupid theory since the curse doc suggests heather and josh got along well in school and had enjoyed working together on previous projects.
>>223982962>>223983011Plus where did they go? They vanished and were never seen again. Remember, all their gear was later found along with their car still being in the same place they parked it.
>>223983088If you murdered someone and were on camera being the last person the victim interacted with wouldn’t you want to lay low and maybe even change identities?
>>223983131Right, but that doesn’t account for them leaving the car behind and presumably hiking out of the forest to civilization. There was a huge search and rescue operation looking for them.
>>223983160And apparently also demolishing the house somehow.
>>223982109That's a nice theory. Did Reddit give it to you?
>>223982282With the boring shit Backrooms movie you can just leave. When the Blair Witch locks onto you, it's over. You cant leave.
>>223983253>2026>pretending that 4chan is still some secret club with a different userbase than reddit
>>223983292Fan theories are in fact for reddit faggots, however.
>>223983316some of the best fan theories originated here though anon
>>223983466>well actually it was all in their head/they were in a coma/they were crazy the whole time There, I’ve just described the vast majority of them and they all suck.
>>223983528yeah but unlike the "josh & mike murdered heather" theory those actually have evidence to support themthere is literally zero proof for the murder theory
>>223982287Speakers, just like they did it irl.
>>223982282Silent Hill for me. AKA "backrooms for straight people".
>>223982717>>223982776The footage was found buried under one of the walls and the soil on top was in the same order as the rest of the land around it, making it unlikely that a hole was dug to bury it by traditional means
>>223982382Look it up. You have internet, don't you?
>>223982282Champagne room
>>223984216no sex in the champagne room
>>223982431He posted an image of a spriggan
>>223981950Here
>>223984600curiously she was also a production assistant on the film
>>223982109Did you know The Rock is a James Bond movie!
>>223983011The theory is actually completely viable. Josh and/or Mike were in love with Heather but couldn't have her through conventional means. Maybe one of them was a psycho and manipulated the other. Heather suggesting the documentary was the perfect cover to kidnap her. They take her to a different state, leaving all their gear behind, using the blair witch myth to turn their crime into an art piece.Literally the only plot hole is that the house only existed in the past, so they would have had to film the whole thing in a different woodland with similar landmarks and a dilapidated house. But it's still all technically possible.
>>223981950As I've written more than once here, I believe it happened right after they left the Coffin Rock site and kept going. It makes total sense, drama-wise. They're about 25% in at that point, they've just acknowledged some spooky shit, and they're getting lost right around that point. I don't like the rock-cairn thing at all for this one >>223981973 , because it doesn't thinkg through the timing, it's a bit later and they're set up to stumble across the thing which tells them that they're ALREADY fucked. THey find the first cairn set AFTER Josh indicates having heard spooky noises last night (they're already locked in the dimension). Accidentally knocking over a rock doesn't matter at that point.If after doing the Coffin Rock shoot they had suddenly turned 360 degrees and walked straight back out exactly the way they came in, they might have had a chance. It was the hubris to continue after Coffin Rock that did them in, and the oppression starts almost immediatley after that (rain, cold, noises).
>>223986931Hmm yea makes sense
>>223982752Objectively less dangerous than any of our cities.
>>223986807How do you explain all the weird things that happened to them at night? All three of them were in the tent when they heard the sounds of children and someone pounding on the outside. Also, Heather seeing something and saying "What the fuck is that?!!". The murder theory doesn’t hold up under any scrutiny.
>>223986807Their car was found left behind as well as their equipment.
>>223982717Anon, it's Parr's house that burned down 50 years earlier. The creators confirmed it. Also there is no witch, it's something in the woods.
>>223982382Forest/tree spirit thing. Fun to run in wood elf armies in warhammer fantasy
why didn't they just follow the river
>>223988593They did.
>>223988611no thye didn't
>>223988638They did. It just led them back to where they started because they were supernaturally trapped by that point.
You people try way too hard to overanalyze shit, the cairn theory is the only decent one.
>>223988658No they didn't anonThey keep crossing it but never actually follow it down
>>223988977>We're following the creek and Mike seems satisfied with that.
>>223981950The ritual wasn't complete until they entered the house, they had chances to escape if they had just calmed down and tried to survive. The spell they were under could only last two weeks at most
>>223989072They were literally transported to the past, anon. They were fucked already.
The minute they stepped into the woods which were haunted, I dont feel like any other answer works.
>>223983466you sound like one of those vaccinated gayboys.
>>223989095Were that the case there'd be many more missing persons over the years. Obviously there was some confluence of events that made them a particular target, whether it be the cairn, taking a talisman, spending the night or all the above.
>>223989082In real space they died like 1 hour before the APB, the rocks were arranged by one of the search parties. They weren't sent back to the distant past ir future, just needed to last long enough for someone else to enter the woods in real space. That's probably what breaks the spell
>>223989234>real spaceIn real space they died in Parr's house which was currently nonexistent ruins.
>find a brook>suddenly find it again hours later>lose your shit because you're going in circles>never think once to just follow the brook downhill and eliminate the possibility of going anywhere but a straight line to civilizationonce again everyone
>>223982282Backroom but the cool version in which the floor 69 is interspecies reviewers isekai
>>223989323>literally says in the movie they follow the creek>continue to act like they didn't because you were on your phone when that exchange happened
>>223989439Lol gotem
>>223982282I stand a better chance against the Blair Witch. My inner demons are legendary.
>>223982282I'll guard a corner where I eat and fuck the marshmallow people.
To this day, the tent scene is probably the scariest shit I’ve seen in a movie. I’ve camped in the Appalachian mountains a few times and its awesome. Im usually more worried about the bears and random weirdos but man, that tent scene always has me on edge when I would go to bed.
>>223989603>bearsMeth Man is the biggest danger in Appalachia.
>>223989603My friend and I used to go to random tents and reenact the tent scene. Good times.
>>223989439>>223989454They say that, but there's no water in sight for most of that time and you don't hear the running water either, so they obviously wandered off the wrong way in the interim. >retards lost in the woods state they tried something, so obviously they did it properly and you'd be crazy to question their methodsGotem
>>223982117Would a map even help them at that point? They just be wandering in random directions for days and even with a map right in front of them, they have zero idea where they are and don't know how to tell direction using the sun, moon, stars, etc,
>>223981950when ||MUH DIK||
>>223989622Chekd. And well aware. Have had a couple tweaker run-ins over the years. Had some guy chase me away thinking I was a cop after I bummed him a smoke with a machete. Another time had a dude tapping on my window outside and saw him staring into my friend’s parents cabin in black mountain. >>223989662Based
>>223989688>kicks map into creek>from nowhere near the creekJust give it up, tardo.
>>2239897771. we never see that happen either2. i didn't say they never encountered the steam again, just that they didn't follow it continuously like they should have
>>223989834>this 90minute movie which condenses days of walking didn't show something so it never happened>the characters are just lying
>mfw i've been lost in this thread for 5 days
